February Fever
All aboard. It’s murder on the Valentine Train in a heart-racing mystery.
Mira James is heading to Oregon by rail with two of her best friends to attend a PI conference. Even better, she’ll see Johnny, the love of her life, who’s in Portland for an internship. It’ll be scenic, swift, and safe. Until it isn’t.
When a winter storm brings the train to a dead stop in the Rockies, Mira discovers that a woman in the next cabin has been murdered, and her husband and child have vanished. Rumors of an escaped convict do nothing to ease the passengers’ frazzled nerves. To Mira, every one of them is a suspect.
Trapped in a snowbound train with only two people she can trust, Mira has to solve a baffling disappearance and track down a killer―if she isn’t derailed herself. Permanently.
